CBM-Command v2.1 Release Candidate 1

CBM-Command è un disk manager per Commodore 64 / 128 / VIC20 e Commodore C16. L’interfaccia ricorda il vecchio Norton Commander / Midnight Commander. L’interfaccia grafica del CBM-Command per ovvi motivi risulta più semplice ma perfettamente integrata nel sistema operativo. La versione per Commodore 128 puo’ girare anche a 80 colonne.

Release Notes – Version 2.1 – 2011-10-28 – Release Candidate 1

This version is intended to replace all prior versions you may have downloaded. Please see release notes for prior versions to get comprehensive list of changes.

New Features:

  • It can detect the formats of Creative Micro Design’s partitions and sd2iec’s disk images.
  • It knows automatically when to create either single-sided (D64) or double-sided (D71) images.
  • CBM 8050 and CBM 8250 (SFD-1001) disk copier.

Changes:

  • A better help file.
  • Fixed batch delete: it can remove many more files in one pass.
  • After a rename, it shows both the new and old names (you can verify that you changed what you wanted to change).
  • It is better at catching and reporting disk/file errors.
  • It is less likely to be jammed by missing drives.
  • It has improved support for RELative files.
  • It copies all of the data in IDE64 files.
  • The panels show the disks’ format codes.
  • The image creater says which image format it plans to make. Now, it tells you before it asks for a file-name (to remind you about which suffix to use in the name).
  • Cleaner VIC-20 screens.

Known Issues:

  • It can trigger the write-and-replace bug.
  • It can’t create or write back D80 and D82 images.
  • It can’t create or read images with error-blocks or extended tracks.
  • The REL-file copier doesn’t truncate old target files that have the same record size as the new file.
  • It will try to copy DEL files if they are selected.
  • Errors don’t stop batch operations; the file is skipped.

CBM-Command v2.0 Release Candidate

CBM-Command è un disk manager multipiattaforma per Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 e Commodore C16. L’interfaccia assomiglia al Norton Commander / Midnight Commander ma molto più semplice ed e’ perfettamente integrata nel sistema operativo. La versione per Commodore 128 puo’ girare anche a 80 colonne.

Release Notes – Version 2.0 Release Candidate – 2011-01-14

New Features:

  • Whole Disk Copying – Hotkey = “O” – This will copy a whole disk from one like drive to another like drive (ie. 1541 to 1541, 1571 to 1571) and also will copy a 1541 to a 1571.

Changes:

  • Bug fixes

Known Issues:

  • Deleting batches of files with more than 30 files does not work as expected as only the first 30 files are deleted. This is because of the way that deleting files alters the disk directory which prevents looping over the whole directory and selectively deleting files. Unfortunately I see no way around this as it’s impossible to cache the names of all the files to delete without some kind of temporary storage. This issue will not stop the release of Version 2.0.

CBM-Command v2.0 Beta 2

CBM-Command è un disk manager multipiattaforma per Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 e Commodore C16. L’interfaccia assomiglia al Norton Commander / Midnight Commander ma molto più semplice ed e’ perfettamente integrata nel sistema operativo. La versione per Commodore 128 puo’ girare anche a 80 colonne.

Release Notes – Version 2.0 Beta 2 – 2011-01-01

Changes:

  • (64, 128, Plus/4) Changed the timing code back to version 1.7 because the clock() function in cc65 does not reflect accurate timing.
  • (VIC, PET) The time(NULL) function is not available on these targets and thus had to be removed.
  • Help Hot-Key Fixed – Now when you press either F1 or H you get the help file (if the CBM-Command disk is in the drive you started CBM-Command from).
  • Updated Help File – the new help file by popmilo has been incorporated into the disk.
  • Directory navigation hot keys fixed.

Known Issues:

  • None – if you have a bug to report, PLEASE do so to the CBM-Command website or mailing list.
